Horse breeder *Mickael Kohlhass* (*Mads Mikkelsen*) is appreciated by all for his great respect for the animals he raises on his farm in the Cévennes mountains. On the way to a market Kohlhass attends each year, a lord demands payment for the right of passage of his lands, which until now had always been free. Kohlhass leaves two horses and one of his grooms. Upon his return, he finds his horses in terrible condition – wounded, malnourished and left in the pig pen. His employee has disappeared, but Kohlhass won’t believe he would betray him. When the man returns, covered with scars from a dog attack, Kohlhass decides to raise an army and risk everything to get revenge on the evil lord.
